Grain futures are moving higher this morning, getting a lift from signs of fresh export demand and weather concerns that stretch from Argentina to the southern Plains. South Korean buyers returned to the corn market this week for multiple purchases and export sales from last week reported this morning are also expected to be good. Dry weather continues to lower forecasts for Argentine corn and soybean production, while weather maps turned drier again for the southern Plains.
